: Construct a gate at Cheltenham Avenue at the Naval Support Activity, Philadelphia Pa.

General Description: Construct a gate at Cheltenham Avenue at the Naval Support Activity, Philadelphia Pa. The Contractor shall provide all labor, material, tools, equipment, supplies and supervision to install a gate and fence with posts. Apply, monitor and comply with all safety requirements in accordance with the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers Safety and Health Requirements Manual, EM-385-1-1. In the event that during the work process an unsecure condition (i.e., inability to secure the perimeter) should arise on the perimeter of the base, the Contractor shall make provisions to ensure that the base perimeter is secure from entry by unauthorized personnel. The Contractor shall remove the bus shelter located inside the gate area and on the concrete sidewalk. All trip hazards shall be repaired to prevent any accidents. The Contractor shall return the bus shelter to the Government for future use. On Gates Avenue north of the Cheltenham Avenue traffic gate the Contractor shall remove approximately 6' of concrete wall and fencing. The exposed portion of the existing reinforced concrete wall is approximately 3' in height. The Contractor shall saw cut the wall near the existing fence post so that the remaining fencing and wall remain secure. There is a formed expansion joint on the northern end of the section of wall to be cut with continuous horizontal rebar running through it. The Contractor shall make one cut here as this will help to ensure the integrity of the wall. There is an existing continuous concrete wall footing, located approximately 2 foot below grade that shall remain. The Contractor shall retain the existing fencing from the removed section of the concrete perimeter wall and return to the Government for possible future use. The Contractor shall excavate an area 6' wide x 9'6" long x12" deep from the new gate in the wall to the roadway. The Contractor shall form out the excavation and place, grade and compact 6" of 2A modified stone to serve as a base for a new sidewalk. The Contractor shall pour a new 6" concrete sidewalk to join up with the existing sidewalk. The Contractor shall also install a gate and fencing with posts to match the current installation. The current fence is an Ameristar Product, Aegis II Invincible style fence with posts and hardware in the color black. The new gate and fence shall match the existing installation in height which is approximately 9'3" from the ground. The new gate shall also have additional hardware that will enable it to be opened or closed via the swipe card system currently in use at this facility. The gate shall also be capable of being locked separately from the swipe card system in the event of power failure that the gate shall not fail in the open position. The gate shall meet ADA requirements for entry and have at a minimum 36" opening. The gate does not have to be oversized to match fence height as a separate section can be used as a header over the gate. All dimensions for this project shall be verified on site by the Contractor. The Government will install the security card swipe unit after the new gate is installed. This work shall be coordinated by the Government Representative. The Contractor, at a minimum, shall guarantee the new installation for a period of two years against defects in workmanship and materials. The estimated cost range is Under $25,000.00.
